Assemblyman Chris Tague (R,C,I,Ref-Schoharie) has prepared a Summer Reading Challenge for this year which recognizes children who read 15 minutes a day for 40 days during the months of July and August. Tague believes reading during the summer, especially following a period when many students had their traditional schooling interrupted due to the COVID-19 pandemic, provides a way to sharpen both the literary skills and imagination of young people. It\u2019s also an opportunity for families to come together to learn and bond together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAfter long days of work, school, sports, and activities, sharing a story together can be one of the best ways for a parent and child to bond,\u201d said Tague. \u201cWhen a child reads, they develop not only literary skills, but the ability to think critically and use their imagination. Participating in my Summer Reading Challenge is a great way to make reading a habit, so I\u2019d encourage any and all parents to help their children participate!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
